Composed by Matt Turner, Moonlight Odyssey for string orchestra is a hard-driving piece which takes the listener on an adventure full of rhythmic twists and turns as well as Middle Eastern-flavored melodies.
The piece begins rubato with a quiet drone. The soloist should take time at the beginning—don’t hurry through the introduction. The tremolos in mm. 3 and 7 should shimmer—play very quietly but intensely. Exaggerate and move quickly through the crescendo in mm. 12 and 16. The ostinato section beginning in m. 10 should be staccato (as marked) and precise—be careful not to rush! Cellists and bassists should “rock out” and emphasize the accented notes in mm. 50 and 51 to set up the next section. Exaggerate dynamics throughout.
